I was able to capture a total of six hours sleep scattered about most of today - an hour or two there and here. My mind and Spirit's feel better but these knuckles, bones and body innards tell me there's more sleep to get a hold of. I will. That rest and relaxation thing is not enough when I need to get some good sleep. The compensation piece is the part where I am able to taste the sweet flavour of undisturbed sleep. I have noticed that when I approach sixty or so hours with very little sleep or none for that matter, my body tends to go in some form of auto pilot - with my mind heading this way and my body not heading anywhere too fast at all. Tonight, I'll take care to have those thoughts and sensations of pills and tablets floating in my system. Sleep, which just may come sooner than later - I pray, shall require I take my medications as ordered...
...there's so much in life and so much to do with life to miss out when my body and mind are on auto pilot or when my entire being is sleeping because of this Meniere's. I totally get that the sleep and the non-sleep are all related to Meniere's. Yes, but damn, I understand it as a thought - it doesn't make it an ounce easier reading or hearing myself say this. That's a matter of reality in my day-to-day, Meniere's and it's many forms and shapes.
My In-Laws car broke down on the way to to pick me up for my appointment with He-Who-Touched-My-Brain. I felt really bad for them because they sure didn't need the added expense of auto repair. The appointment has been rescheduled for next Wednesday, 19 December. That seems like so next week, but what can one do when life happens. Ride the wave of course. I am sorry I missed my appointment with Dr. D. It was so necessary. It was so very kind of 'Von from Doctor's clinic to call and check up on me. Bless her sweet heart. The trip for next week is scheduled and may God Bless that this pain and drainage subsides. If not, there is a trip to the emergency department for me - with no doubt in mind.
At 1800, my mother-in-law called to let me know that the auto has been repaired. I am happy to hear and thankful that it was nothing too major. I felt as if it was my fault for the break down of their only car. If they were not on there way here - maybe it wouldn't have happened.
In the morrow I have an appointment with my Internal medicine doctor, She-Who-Knows-My-Innards. Am looking forward to this as there are a few topics that need to be addressed. I'll be taking the Lil' Blue Bus on this trip come morning. Will spend a spell down in my old stomping grounds and go to a place where folks know my name.
I have nothing more to say.
